SUMMARY:PER-213: Wide Area Search
DESCRIPTION:Registration: https://teex.org/class/PER213/ \nCourse Description \nWhen disaster strikes\, it can be a challenge to effectively mobilize\, organize\, and deploy resources needed to perform wide area searches. This course is an excellent training opportunity for any jurisdiction or agency that may face such an emergency. The course content applies to a vast number of critical situations\, including natural disasters or terrorist incidents. \nYou will be instructed in practical search methods and skills so you can perform systematic searches over a large affected area. The training will include challenging exercises that mirror real life scenarios. The three-day long event will conclude with an in-depth exercise that requires participants to utilize the skills gained during the course by working through an incident from start to finish in a single operational period. \nThe trainers delivering the course are knowledgeable—they are experienced emergency responders who have actively utilized wide area search techniques during some of the nation’s largest and most challenging operations\, such as Hurricanes Katrina\, Ike\, Gustav\, and Rita; the Space Shuttle Columbia recovery operation; and many other incidents that required the same comprehensive strategies.
